My Son, My Son What Have Ye Done

When a disturbed man (Michael Shannon) kills his jello-loving mother (Grace Zabriskie) with a sword and takes flamingos hostage after returning from a traumatic rafting trip in Peru a year earlier in this unsurprisingly offbeat, strange, factually based film in which directors Werner Herzog and David Lynch collaborate, two San Diego detectives (Willem Dafoe and Michael Peña) interview the killer's fiancée (Chloë Sevigny), a stage director (Udo Kier), and two neighbors (Loretta Devine and Irma P. Hall) in an attempt to figure out his motivation and to safely handle the hostage situation.
